Bacteria Inhibition
nanoe™ X spreads nano-sized ions to every corner of the refrigerator and inhibits bacteria growth in the air and on the wall.
Safely Store Raw Fish
Proper storage in a refrigerator charged with nanoe™ X prevents the growth of worrisome bacteria on raw fish.

Pesticide Reduction
When vegetables are stored in a Panasonic nanoe™ X compatible refrigerator, the hydroxyl radicals decompose the pesticides on food so they can be easily rinsed off with water.
Enjoy Raw Vegetable Salad
Since nanoe™ X particles are extremely small, even the pesticides left lodged within the fibres are decomposed. You can enjoy unheated dishes such as salads with confidence.
